It helps improve operational efficiency by eliminating redundant processes across Custody, Fund Accounting and Transfer Agency. More importantly, it eliminates the need to maintain multiple back-office systems with the accompanying challenges of interfacing and reconciliation and reduces the total cost of ownership.
As one of the pioneers among global financial technology providers, Intellect will continue to expand its product portfolio by aiming to solve some of the world’s tough problems in the business of managing money.
